description In anaesthesia, for instance, the "initial assessment of competency" for senior house officers, an assessment normally undergone after three months' training, was one of the first documented assessments in which failure prevented the trainee joining an on-call roster and would thus have an effect on service provision. An example might be a supervised surgical procedure such as herniorrhaphy, with the trainee as the operator and the consultant assessor as the first assistant. Because the trainee will not perform to the same calibre as that of the consultant assessor and may also perform poorly under examination conditions, it is reasonable that patients should provide genuinely informed, written consent.
